Default PCV setups for boost.

ok... I have seen many PCV setups the last few days of my research, but everyone has a different opinion (yes its the internet). How many of you B series folks are running high boost? Im currently building my engine and going for around 450whp.

I need a solid and reliable, but fairly priced solution for a pcv setup.
Diagrams GREATLY appreciated
all other information appreciated as well.


yes I have searched. as well as all the threads here on HMT.

I just want to see all of your opinions

PCV setup or are you talking about a oil catch can?

Well yes I suppose I am talking about catch cans as well, as they are used as part of the PCV system. Basically there are quite a few options when it comes to routing hoses, tapping hoses for vacuum sources ECT. I am just looking for the best set up for high boost that comes at a relatively low price, while trying to avoid one that will be inefficient.

i used an aluminum 90 degree an to hose barb fitting and welded it to my turbo air inlet pipe. i ran a hose from my pcv hose barb on the valve cover to the 90 degree welded fitting in the turbo air inlet pipe. i did not use a catch can. i check my oil every fuel fill up.

Busa4 has a good setup to avoid a catchcan. All a pcv does is vent the crank case fumes into the intake manifold to be burned off so detonation doesn't occur in the Crank case. Also works as a vent to prevent pressure, causing oil leaks and. So in other words use his setup or go fancy with a nice looking catch can

I was thinking of doing that setup, but in my case i have the black pcv box (B18C). wouldnt I need to pull vacuum through there as well?

Nah through the mani dude one hose to valve cover one hose to black box the your vacuum. Hard to explain without pics. Sure you can figure it out tho.
